Re;first,congrats on the new machine,so far carbon copy cloner has worked fine for me,I have TI 800 and two external HD's from my old tower in firewire boxes,being that im new to all this,haveing everything in working order to reload is a major good deal to me,cause i dont know enough about this yet,when you decide to copy ,first have your apps backed-up somewhere,then (i) erased and initialized the target disk,then open carbon copy and it shows you,disk to record from and disk to record to,I learned that while in operation ,leave machine alone until completed,i thought i could check mail during process and I cause it to fail,reset to try again, all went well.i have 2 complete system copies,each i then update with music on one and movies on the other.hope this helps
